Hi Bob,

Done. I forgot that I changed my email address when I was away on a
three week trip and there was a partial network outage. Now I am
subscribed twice.
This is excellent news ! Thanks for sharing it! Would it be possible that
libtiff.org just redirects to https://libtiff.gitlab.io/libtiff/, which will
probably have better scalability ? But that's nitpicking. Having got control
back is the main thing. Thanks to Lee!
I have added the redirection for "http://www.libtiff.org/", but
retained "http://www.simplesystems.org/libtiff/", for redundancy
purposes. Since Lee Howard is in charge of this domain, he is free to
make any changes to it later, such as change it to a dedicated server.
We should keep in mind that Lee Howard is a maintainer of Hylafax,
which is now broken given latest libtiff due to many libtiff utilities
being removed. It would be beneficial for his project (and others) if
the deprecated/removed libtiff utilities are restored (with security
fixes), if even as a different project from libtiff itself.
